As my tour comes to an end and I sincerely plan to take a year off from touring in 2012, I reflected on the past couple of years.

Over the 20 months or so that my book has been out I have toured well over half of that time and have been to about 5 countries, over half the US states and countless cities.

Along the way I met thousands of people, sold 7,000 books, made a lot of new friends, gave talks all over North America and sufficiently exhausted myself. I'm taking some time off from traveling to get back in the gym, follow my own advice and get back into shape.

For fun, I came up with this list of some people I've signed books to along the way. There are many others to add and I'll likely update it for fun later on.

Any names surprise you or stand out? Any names you are surprised to see have been omitted from the list?

I'm doing lots of give-aways to those who order from Amazon now through the rest of the year. Simply forward your Amazon.com order to robert@veganbodybuilding.com and I'll get in touch and hook you up sufficiently for the holidays.

Just bought your book and Im very exited to get it in the mail and get started. I own a vegan cupcake business in Melbourne AU and I thought it was time to get off my ass and represent what a vegan can do! Its going to be funny seeing someone so fit frosting cupcakes in a few months! (I dont eat my cupcakes any more just sample to make sure new Flavors are good) I also make my frosting with coconut oil!

Robert, that whole list is impressive but these names, specifically, definitely stand out for me. Congrats on having yet another successful year and thank you for always being such a huge inspiration and motivator for chasing after my own dreams.

Thank you. I sincerely appreciate it. I've had such a fun time as an author. It has been a truly rewarding experience and touring is one of the great aspects of pursuing that passion.

I've got to add Howard Lyman to the list now and likely many more soon. Working hard to make a difference. Though I've reached many who are already vegan, I've still reached thousands who aren't and now I'm focusing on celebrities who are not currently vegan, hoping my book will on some level inspire them to consider their food and lifestyle choices and pick a more compassionate way to move forward.

Thanks again. Have a great one!

Awesome plan, most definitely. Looking forward to seeing you reach an even broader audience and helping smash vegan myths left and right!

I'm back in the gym, hitting it hard! I'm heading there shortly. I have a few injuries that flare up every now and then, no doubt a by-product of 10+ years of bodybuilding and 20+ years as an athlete, but I still keep on keeping on.
